As a Trello Premium/Enterprise user, I want to see checklist items on all Views, so that I can view them alongside cards in single board and Workspace Views

    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      User Problem

      Currently, checklist items are only visible on the Board View and the (single-board) Calendar View. They are not available on the following Views:

      • (single-board) Table View
      • Workspace Calendar View
      • Workspace Table View
      • Timeline View

      (not including Dashboard View in this scope as this is a different kind of View. Also not including the Map View as you cannot add locations to checklist items - if requested, we should create a new suggestion to track this)

      Suggested Solutions

      • Add the ability to see checklist items on all of the Views above when they have due dates added to them.
      • Add the ability to filter these Views by assignee and have both cards and checklist items that the selected user(s) are assigned to be shown in each View

      Current Workarounds

      None available - the only way to see Checklist Items other than in the card itself is to:

      • Use the (single-board) Calendar View
      • Head to https://trello.com/my/tasks to see Checklist Items assigned to you that have not yet been ticked off/marked as complete
      • Navigate to Trello.com > 'Home' to view 'Your Items', which includes Checklist items with due dates assigned to you

            We have a daily need for this feature and hope to see it addressed soon.

            An ability to sort the checklist tasks in "your items" would be great, a way where you could put "your items" on the side bar instead of hidden in home (and then requiring you to hit show more if you have more than two checklist items), a way to see all checklist items in your workspace views and filter there, automatically removing old checklists from closed boards so they don't muck up the your items view, etc etc – any of these things would help a ton.

            Totally agree. This is a MAJOR set back of the platform. Asana does this really well for anyone looking at other platforms. Unfortunately, my company switched us over to Atlassian/Trello and I'm trying to get them to switch us back (at least for our small team) because Trello doesn't give us the flexibility in views that we need. What we have now is a hacked together solution with 10+ automations in order to get half of the functionality that Asana has out of the box (for free).

            I think it really is an issue for many others who just don't commen or report the issue. Majority of people just accept the way things are. However, I 100% agree with you about the severity of the issue. For our company as well it might be a deal-breaker that's forcing us to look into other solutions.

            I'm really saddened by the fact that it's taking so long. I understand that there's a process to follow, but it's a significant issue, and we can't truly utilize Trello because it's a missing key component for our workflow. We really hoped Trello would assist our management, but I suppose now we must search for something new... It's a great platform; don't misunderstand me, but we have waited too long . Additionally , we are a small business paying a premium for multiple coworkers, and we can't effectively use it. The issue was created on March 11, 2024, so it's almost a year, and it's still gathering. There are two things that I can't understand. First, why aren't there more people with this issue? Second , why doesn't Trello see that it's a real issue that they should fix, even though there aren't enough votes? Because, like most of the comments say, it's a key component! A component that only works 50%, just on the board itself, and not across all boards. I mean, why even do it like that? I'm sorry; we are just really frustrated because we have put so so much effort and so so much time into Trello.

            We REALLY need this - also needed for "activity" messages, eps when we are @ tagged in the message.

            This would be a game changer, i am surprised that this is not already a function

            I really need a workspace view of the checklist items, it's essential to track deadlines, workload and coordinate each team member. I hope you can improve this asap, and I will marry Trello forever.
